Abstract

Using non-equilibrium Green׳s function and ab initio calculations we investigate structural, electronic, and transport properties of a junction consisting of armchair hexagonal boron phosphide nanoribbon (ABPNR) contacted by two semi-infinite electrodes composed of armchair graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs). We consider three different configurations including the pristine AGNR–BP–GNR and substitutions for Iron atoms, namely on phosphorus and boron atoms at one edge of the BP nanoribbon. The spin current polarization in all these cases is extracted for each structure and bias. Such hybrid system is found to exhibit not only significant spin-filter efficiency (SFE) but also tunable negative differential resistance (NDR).
